What about a spouse's property? Also, consider: if everything had to be given up forever, you might see a lot fewer successful people & people of high-caliber running for office.
Government check for politician, spouse, kids.
Do you like the high quality character people we have in congress now? Reducing the self interest of a congress position just might get higher quality people.

That seems unlikely, as it will be a less attractive professional option for capable people. At best this is a gamble that could easily result in an even worse outcome. The fact that our leadership now is generally unpopular is not a justification for a solution that could be worse than the problem.
